FT10 Magnetometer for locating concealed objects

fast – convenient – precise

Easy location of ferromagnetic objects

The FerroTec FT10 helps you safely and reliably locate concealed valve boxes, curb boxes, meter boxes, manhole covers, rebar, property  markers, shaft covers, sliding rods and caps, as well as pavement markers and other objects. The only requirement is that they are made of iron, cast iron or steel. The ergonomic design, convenient operation and precise measuring technology make your work fast and easy.

The measurement principle: sturdy technology with an ergonomic design

Objects containing iron cause changes in the earth’s magnetic field which can be picked up by the two magnetically sensitive sensors in the FerroTec FT 10 (fluxgate magnetometers) and converted to an acoustic signal. In addition, the display shows you getting close to the object you are looking for. The closer you are to the object, the stronger the signal. At maximum signal strength, the FerroTec FT 10 is exactly above the object.

Fast and reliable results

The FerroTec FT 10 recognizes 50/60 Hz alternating fields  (AC electric current) and directs you towards the exact position of power cables, thus preventing mix-ups and false detections and protecting you against electrocution during excavation.

The FerroTec FT 10 recognizes polarity changes in large objects, for example in shaft covers. This means that you can – depending on the orientation of the object – classify its position and size.

Padded Vinyl carry case included.
